Basically, if you're a Kings blogger (guy who never got a journalist degree) you just list every free agent and say you heard he might be going to the Kings. Then, if 1 of them do happen to sign in LA you can say "See, I told you so." I love how everybody has inside information now, like agents don't float rumors so that it appears there is interest therby driving up the price on his client.

There's a report out of Edmonton tonight that The Kings and Oilers are working on a trade that would send Souray to LA for Simmonds and Jack Johnson.

Any word there?

Other than a Canadian website living some fantasy ****ing pipe dream! I honestly never see a deal where we remotely even win or get a fair offer. So basically a 22 yr old kid and a 19 yr old kid that both have upside and already play in the NHL everyday compared to a mid thirties defenseman that has three years left on his deal.

It's not an attack on you so I apologize but it honeslty gets ridiculous. I know all about Sheldon having a fantastic year in Edmonton but it's overpayment on our end in my opinion. JJ still needs time to develop and his potential is still very, very high. And Simmonds....c'mon! I'd go blow up the Kings front office!

So yeah no thanks!

The Kings didn't wanna sign Souray when he was a UFA... they'd rather wait a year and give up two of their best prospects for him... and still have to pay the guy an average of $5.4 mil for 3 more years.

If you're gunna make **** up... at least take 5 minutes to think of something credible.

If there were a list of three totally untouchable Kings' players, it is hard to dispute that Wayne Simmonds is not on it. He represents everything that DL wants this team to become- heart, grit, effort, team first, sacrifice. Those are the kind of adjectives you just don't trade.

Strickland is saying the Blues want to make a splash this weekend. He mentioned Johnson from the Kings to STL. Not a rumor just him throwing it out there. He threw out Perron's name to go the other way. Again not a rumor just thinking out loud.

IF STL want JJ, How would the conversation go if DL asked for Boyes back in return.
How is this Value wise? Boyes is a center and would be a great addition to the top 6.

Strickland has passed the 50-mile mark on that donut he's been riding around on after blowing a tire with that whole Pronger deal.

Edmonton's only asking for Johnson and Simmonds, not like they're asking for Kopitar and Doughty. If the rumour's true LA rips off Edmonton in the deal

Look at the pipeline.

Trading JJ now for a player who is locked in for 3 years makes sense.

We already know that JJ is going to be a problem to negotiate with in the future, plus probably be unaffordable with all the other players we have.

Throwing in Simmonds doesnt make sense, but straight up or "Jack Johnson and Pick" I would do in a heartbeat.
